What are your success habits?

For me, it isn’t success habits, but habits in general – wake up on time, not procrastinate on my tasks, have a good life-work balance.

To wear sunscreen, drink plenty of water, and be responsible for my own actions and decisions.

What are you most proud of?

I am proud of a lot of small things involving a lot of people and outcomes which together can make a big difference or impact. For example, I am proud of the Mintos product now, but it consists of many accomplishments along the way since the first day of it.

What is something people would be surprised to know about you?

I have no surprising facts or traits about myself that would stand out.

What have you always wanted to try, but have never found the time to actually do it?

Usually, I try to find time for everything that I want to do and accomplish.

What is your current challenge or goal?

To build the best product teams, which is more goal than a challenge, but sometimes it might be challenging.

What are your hobbies or activities to relax?

All about mountains all year round – snowboarding and downhill bike riding, but I enjoy regular cycling as well.

How do you push through your worst times?

By doing things that I can affect, one at a time and trying to not stress about things that do not depend on me.
